Article Abstract
Objective: This study aimed to estimate the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) among patients with and without diabetes mellitus (DM) using the Framingham risk score (FRS) and to investigate the effect of DM control on CVD risk.
Methodology: A total of 2432 participants who had their glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) measured within the last three months were included in this study. The study cohort was divided into three categories: non-diabetic, participants with controlled DM (HbA1c<7%), and uncontrolled DM (HbA1c≥7%). The World Health Organization's stepwise approach to chronic disease risk factor Surveillance-Instrument v2.1 was used in this study to collect the anthropometric and biochemical measurements. The Framingham Coronary Heart Risk Score (FRS) was used to calculate the 10-year cardiovascular risk (CVR). The groups were compared concerning the prevalence of metabolic, socioeconomic, and cardiac risks.
Results: Out of 2432 participants, 149 had controlled DM (6.1%), 286 had uncontrolled DM (11.8%), and 1997 participants were normoglycemic (82.1%). Compared to healthy participants, diabetic participants showed more high-risk characteristics across all CVR parameters. Uncontrolled diabetic patients had a graver laboratory and clinical profiles compared to the controlled DM group. As measured by FRS, nearly half of patients with controlled DM (49.9%) and two-thirds of patients with uncontrolled DM (63.3%) were classified as intermediate and high-risk compared to 4.6% of the healthy participants. Compared to healthy participants, patients with controlled DM showed a threefold increased CVR (OR = 3.02, 95% C.I. = 1.41-7.24) while this risk catapulted to 13 times among those with uncontrolled DM (OR = 13.57, 95% C.I. = 6.99-26.36).
Conclusion: Participants with DM are at moderate to high CVR. Individuals with uncontrolled DM showed higher CVR profiles as measured by FRS and have a higher prevalence of obesity, unhealthy diet, and physical inactivity.

Department of Biochemistry, Chengde Medical University, Chengde, China.
Objective: The effectiveness and safety of the short-interfering RNA drug inclisiran in lowering patients' lipoprotein cholesterol levels to lower their risk of cardiovascular disease are presently being investigated. Based on the real-world adverse event report record in the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System, this article explores the occurrence and risk of adverse events during inclisiran treatment.

Steatotic liver disease in metastatic breast cancer treated with endocrine therapy and CDK4/6 inhibitor.
Breast Cancer Res Treat
December 2024
Division of Medical Oncology and Hematology, Princess Margaret Cancer Centre University Health Network, 700 University Ave, Toronto, ON, M5G 1Z5, Canada.
Purpose: In early-stage breast cancer, steatotic liver disease (SLD) is associated with increased recurrence, cardiovascular events, and non-cancer death. Endocrine therapy (ET) increases the risk of SLD. The impact of cyclin-dependent kinases 4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i) on SLD and prognostic association in metastatic breast cancer is unknown.

To develop a personalized approach to treatment, we aimed to explore a prognostic model for incident type 2 diabetes at two years and investigate biomarkers predictive of the testosterone effect.
Design: Model development in 783 men with impaired glucose tolerance but not type 2 diabetes from T4DM; a multicenter, 2-year trial of Testosterone vs placebo.
Increasing provider awareness of Lp(a) testing for patients at risk for cardiovascular disease: A comparative study.
Am J Prev Cardiol

St. Elizabeth Healthcare, 20 Medical Village Drive, Suite 103, Edgewood, KY 41017, USA.
Background: Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] is a low-density lipoprotein variant with atherogenic, thrombogenic, and pro-inflammatory properties that may have numerous pathologic effects, including dyslipidemia. Screening for Lp(a) is clinically significant, due to its causal role in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Among clinicians, however, there remains a general lack of both clinical awareness of Lp(a) and adequate tools to track Lp(a) testing in patients.

Objective: Secondhand smoke (SHS) is a strong but comparatively controllable cardiometabolic risk factor. This study aims to assess the present and future burden of cardiometabolic diseases (CMDs) from SHS exposure.
Methods: Using the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) framework, we examined mortality and disability-adjusted life year (DALY) from CMDs attributable to SHS, by age, sex, and year, including cardiovascular disease [CVD, ischemic heart disease (IHD) and/or stroke], and/or Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) from 1990 to 2019.
